I'm a total Barbie girl. I even had 2 of the originals (Blonde and Brunette.
I also had one that had to have been from late 60s/early 70s judging by her haircut and groovy minidress. Ballerina, International, one with Titian Blonde hair and fine copper wires to keep whatever hairstyle you did.
Cher, Brooke Shields, Bionic Woman, Wonder Woman.
Plus all of their vehicles. The big plane, the camper, the VW van, the '79 Corvette convertible (it was purple. The horse, Afghan hound, dog that pooped, lol!
I was a Barbie fanatic. My whole family knew that it didn't take much to make me happy on Christmas or my birthday: anything Barbie. I was just as happy if I got 2 of the same things/outfits, I said I had so many Barbies that having doubles of things meant more to go around when my niece/girlfriends and I played.
Barbie was also a great comfort to me in my teens when I was troubled or depressed. I'd just go through my collection making sure everything was clean, all together, that the dolls' hair were protected(knee high stockings if you want to know. Especially Cher's long hair.

The Game of Life: Decades ago I wrote a program that played through every possible set of moves to find which was best, and what I learned was, except for your profession, none of the few choices that you could make mattered. There was almost zero advantage to making one choice over another. That disappointed me after having played the game for years.
Lite-Bright: This was an amazingly fun toy.
Sorry! : I played this game for a year's-worth of hours. I laugh at that commercial thinking about the actors. Exec: OK, Bob. This is your big break! You finally landed a spot on television. Bob: Outstanding! What role am I playing? Exec: You will be dressing up in a foam suit shaped like a board game piece, walking around and bumping into other people dressed the same way. Bob: .. .

We had 4 sons and every Saturday all of their friends would come over for a tournament. We had 4 uno decks added together and games would go on FOR EV ER! BEST MEMORIES!

Most of these toys were definitely part of my childhood, but you missed one that was a staple of my brother's and I expect millions of other children - LEGO. Can't believe you didn't mention it at all

G. I. Joe - the old-school 12 tall Joe with the Kung-Fu grip and the fuzzy beard. Plus his nemesis (not C. O. B. R. A) - Big Jim and his Sports Camper.

I love the old school commercials. What a trip down memory lane. I remember the Rubik s cube being mentioned in The Wedding Singer as well.

Thank you for the update, MsMojo! I owned a Rubik's cube back in the early 80s, but I was never able to solved it after shuffling it.

May I offer Speak N' Spell/Math/Read as an option for the inevitable sequel to this list?
Big Wheels and Nerf guns say hi as well.
